Frankencart Tool Cart Tour (updated detailed version)

- This is a thorough tour of my frankencart. Most modified tool cart on TH-cam I believe. It started as a blue point- by snap on cart that has been modified a lot and loaded. I forgot to mention the orange Grypmat on the corners and the blue Boltster organizer under the right one. Also on the back corners are brake caliper tools.
The top shelf left side wrenches are standard 1/4”-1” and 21mm-24mm…I think I’m out of room. LOL! Should I upgrade to a regular cart? Hard to let go of this one I really like the set up but don’t have any more space for more toolz! Guess I’ll have to put any more i get in the box. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!!!

Been a tech for about 14 years, and that cart made me cry tears of joy. Any new mechanics out there, take a lesson from this guy. You make it personal, and you will always know where every tool is, and you will be more efficient while on the clock.
Thank so much I really do appreciate comments like this!
i like it, real person real tool box review lol
Thank you 👍🏻👌🙌
Damn!!!!!!
There’s a cart under all those tools? Thanks for sharing
Lol it’s small but it’s under there somewhere thanks for watching
@@WorX4ToolZ hehe
Two things.. I need to send you a sticker... lol
And I wish I could leave tools out like that at my work.. Awesome setup 😃👍
Thanks man! did I send you stickers yet? Message me on Instagram and we’ll exchange👍🏻👌
Agreed, no way I could leave out my tools like that. Just a bunch of thieves.
so cool, the late Von Dutch ( the original guy for Frankensteining motorcycle) would be impressed as am I.
Thank you 😊 I love it
Cool cart. I might do the same. Would caution against using metal holders as they are scratching up your tools. Replace with a nice hardwood instead
I have a Frankencart too but I made the cart myself out of shelving material and put some wheels on. it sits about 2metres high and I still have some space for bits and pieces so it's a work in progress. You've given me some great ideas to continue the frankenisation of my cart - so thanks for that! You got me quite jealous with all the top quality tools you got on yours so we now have toosl race on our hands. I can see I am way behind on the airtools so I have a bit of work to do there. I'd love to integrate my compressor with the cart but I already have to upgarde the wheels have to do that first.
So, whats the biggest socket you got? Mine is a 65MM.
Peaople ask me, "what do you need all those tools for"? My answer, "I own a landrover".
That’s awesome and your cart sounds huge my frankencart is pretty small compared to regular carts. I’m glad it could give you some good ideas! I barely use the air tools anymore I have electric guns and ratchets but i haven’t found a way to put them where the air tools are and I’m sure not going to give up the air tools because they are a great back up and don’t have batteries that run out lol. I would love to see a picture of your cart. If want email a picture of it to me that would be sweet. worx4toolz@yahoo.com Thanks for sharing that I appreciate it. My biggest sockets probably 36 mm. And I love the answer about the Land Rover. That’s great and so true.
Man bro that’s one of the best tool carts I’ve ever seen you got everything I could ever need on that cart
Thank you i love it👍🏻
@@WorX4ToolZ one of the best I’ve seen bud
Sweet! I sure appreciate that
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Jonas Johnathan instablaster =)
Built for speed!!!
That's a impressive set up.. the tools all look well used so I'm guessing you have been in the trade for some time now.. it kinda reminds me of a Indian bus jammed packed ha ha nice of you to take the time to share you're video with us.
Lol thanks Niall it is about as full as it gets. Thank you also for showing interest and wanting to see more of it.👍🏻👌😀
This demonstrates Adam savage first order retriveability
It’s called a tool box
DAMN!
Obviously it works for you and that’s all that matters. Tools pay the bills. Big carts and tool boxes are just along for the ride. Don’t get me wrong, they’re nice but they don’t pay the bills. You are blessed to work in an environment where you don’t have to guard your tools constantly. I work for myself so if a tool gets missing it’s my fault for losing it.
Thank you...It is nice not worrying about theft. I am pretty good at losing tools sometimes, of course it’s usually a 1/4 drive socket LOL but the last loss was my large flathead screwdriver 🤦♂️
Awesome Frankencart tour Erik! Though I have to admit, I think those casters might be screaming. You have utilized every square inch that cart has to offer, and maybe a few it doesn't have to offer. Thanks brother! 👍👍
Thanks man…Lol it is heavy but holding up so far
Cool setup! Can’t imagine the absolute racket that thing must make when you push it around lol
Thank you! and it can make some noise if you move it just right 😂
Really nice setup..what kind of cart is that u started with? Holding lots of weight so speaks highly of the cart itself
Thank you it’s an old Blue Point 2 shelf cart. The wheels are the first thing to fail. So I had to get different casters 1st some harbor fright ones that didn’t like to turn also modified the bottom and now Snapon casters meant to be on a bigger cart. And it escalated from there LOL
Damn, mad max of tool carts. 👍👍
Lol thank you 😊
a joy of clutter
lol organized chaos
you mean disorganized crime@@WorX4ToolZ
Surprised that thing hasn’t folded in on itself awesome way to not upgrade to a bigger box got everything you need there man pretty legit setup
Thank you I keep thinking about an upgrade so I can fit more but I really like the set up and everything it right in reach
Very good cart u have! I’ve started adding my tools onto the cart after seeing this
Thank you that’s awesome! I would love to see pix of your cart if you would like to share you can email it to worx4toolz@yahoo.com
I don't know how you man should do it but you have one organized cart I have seen tool boxes that are bigger than your car and they're not as organized
Thank you...except the bottom shelf looks like a catch all, but things kinda have a place there also😂
damn thing is loaded ready to tackle any job, definitely think you should go a nice roll cart and tear down tray! also what was that snap on pry bar on the bottom shelf you showed
Yeah I’m out of room to add anything else 😂 if you pause you might be able to make out a part number on the pry bar, it is meant to pry brake pads back to loosen them on the caliper instead of a screw driver
Great cart I’m impressed, what do you estimate the cost of everything including the cart? I’m thinking 40,000?
Thank you i’m not sure how much is on the cart. That’s a good guess I haven’t tried to add up everything but it is definitely quit a bit LOL
If you just put another socket in that cart it will look like there's too much tools.
😂2 more sockets and it will be too heavy to move.. haha but you can never have to many toolz👌👍🏻
You do not need a 5k box in this business great video 💪🏾💯
Thank you 🔥👌👍🏻
Nice rig you have there. Need more room, at a side cabinet on to it. More room for stickers! 😎
Thank you 😊 😀that’s a good one I have thought about how I can I make it bigger! Probably would have to custom build something similar but wider and longer or maybe make it taller and add a shelf? 🤔 It is a small cart compared to regular ones.
@@WorX4ToolZ Lots of good vids out there on "tool cart mods" Give you some ideas. Been thinking about getting the HF 5 drawer cart, but don't know if the company I work for will be shutting down next year....
5 draws would be cool! Hope your place doesn’t close if they do I’m sure you’ll find another good place to work 😀👍🏻
Thanks for the video! Lots of good info. What is the red wrench rack you’re using?
Thank you I think I got the wrench rails off the tool truck they are separate not attached to each side, and I put magnets on the bottom of them to help keep in place
Loaded 👍👍☕😉✌
What an ingenious Cart! Wow very impressive Sir. Keep up the good work. 🇺🇸🤙🏼
Thank you I appreciate it
He watches the flat rate master (sticker) 😀.. nice set up
Thank you and yes Flat rate Master has really good content!
Love it 😍
Thank you 😀
We will call you the cart mod king
Haha Thanks 👍🏻👌
You must really trust your co-workers.
I do. we have worked together for years and I haven’t had any problem with theft.
nicely detailed cart 👍🇨🇦
Thank you 🙌
G'day, great cart set up 👍
Thank you! I like it and it works great 😃
Now that's a damn carts!!!!
😂thank you 👍🏻👌🔥
K loco only you know we're is everything 🤟
Lol yeah just don’t put something back on the cart in the wrong place or I lost it😂
My dad ran those carts in his transmission shop for 20 something years, i've got a u.s general 5 drawer roll cart but you just kinda made me wanna get all the parts we've started throwing in those out of one and customize it to this degree. This is badass. Your ratchet and extension holders? Simple yet efficient as hell.
Thank you so much. I love this set up! The regular carts are pretty sweet also and have more room but I just like the accessibility of this cart. I’m glad you got some ideas for one of your own. that would be cool if you make one!!!
@@WorX4ToolZ im gonna have to trade in all my snap on soft grips for the regular handle so i can make one of those lol. I have all my ratchets stuck to a magnet on the lid. I'm like you bro i'd much rather put all that money toward snap on tools than a snap on box. Where did you buy that cart at? Its got some serious weight in it i know that.
@@thefogisgone3662 LOL that’s the main reason I don’t get the soft grip handle ratchets, because they won’t fit in the shelf holes on the sides. I got the cart a very long time ago from an snapon dealer that started his own discount tool truck and had it left over. You can still get a cart like that now from snapon the cheap 2 shelf only square handle on the ends instead of round. But it definitely Has to be modified to hold tools like this they’re not meant to do that😃
@@WorX4ToolZ we have an old cornwell cart thats similar that has broken casters im thinking about fixing it up now. There's just something I really love about all of the tools laying out like that actually looking well used, idk it just reminds me of when i was a kid seein the carts at the shop. Snap on, and mac give me this warm fuzzy feelin inside i guess its where i've been around it my whole life but your cart gave me that feeling again. All you see now on youtube is super clean tools laid out perfectly looking brand new. Nothing wrong with that but it reminded me of when i first started workin for my dad and how the carts looked, kinda reinvigorated me to appreciate and make the best of simple.. know what i mean? Cheers brother.
@@thefogisgone3662 that’s awesome thank you for sharing that! I would love to see the cart if you build it..and even what it looks like now...If you aren’t on Instagram maybe you can start one and send me a pix of the cart. Definitely take before and after pix👍🏻👌
That thing is Beast Mode !!!
LOL THANKS MAN
Very efficient
Thank you!!! now I just need to figure out how to make more room lol
Too much on a small cart, great video but it looks a bit comical and over the top a bit
It may be over the top but it works well for me!
Actually this is next level. Everything is visible and can be grabbed in one movement. Most efficient way to work. Genius level set up. Most don't get it. Over the top of their head. 😁
Thank you!!! I sure love it, I’m glad some others can appreciate what’s going on here also🙌👌👍🏻
Not impressed , get a real cart and be done with it , not practical in a shop setting , love the bouquet of snap on screw drivers , primary objective of a tool cart or box it has to be some kind of secure and this is so not unless you work around saints , I work around priests .
Thank you for your input. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I can see how in a bigger shop with a lot of guys it might be a concern but in the last 14 years or so since I’ve been using and building on this cart it’s served me well. Im thankful to be in smaller shops with not to many other techs. For the last 10 years I’ve been at a shop with 2 guys i trust and haven’t had anything stolen.
Primary objective of a tool cart or box is to secure the tools??? Its meant to function out of. I see this as a very functional tool cart. I work in a shop of 10 people. If I can't trust those people, why am I working there? I have two fairly large tool boxes and I don't lock them. When I go on vacation I leave the boxes open so if someone needs a specialty tool. They can get the job done.
@@brianrodemeier5786 Thank You this cart is very functional. That’s why I have a hard time thinking about changing to a cart with drawers, but some of the draw carts are Awesome! I agree If you can’t trust your coworkers and things keep come up missing maybe you shouldn’t be working there. We are ok with borrowing each other’s tools if needed just put it back LOL
Send Adam Savage a link to your cart, I'm sure he'll agree this is a functional cart
@@janeblogs324 thank you 😊 I will and I’ll let you know it lf he comments back
